Expect an intensely immersive mentorship experience among the unreached. You will study the Word, practice abiding in Christ and spend time meeting locals while learning about missiology, language, culture, history and religion. Pray for many opportunities to connect with and make friends with locals as you immerse yourself in the culture. Most of the people you will meet have never been friends with a Christian before.

Prepare to be in South Asia during the peak summer heat. For most of the summer, you’ll stay with locals in “base town” and build strong friendships. Throughout the trip, you'll visit teams in different areas and learn about the work they do there. You’ll be part of a team dedicated to prayer, mentoring and asking God how He wants to use us for His work.  

Expect assignments that promote growth and involve collaboration. We want you to conclude your time with clarity and confidence about supporting long-term work on this side of the world and equipped to make Christ known wherever He may send you.  

Two Edgers from the last team became such close friends with their roommate that they began reading the Bible together weekly. Now on two different continents, they continue to meet with her online.

Another Edger met a new believer while playing frisbee, got to talk about Jesus with him and introduced him to a long-term worker. Long-term workers have continued meeting with him and are beginning to disciple him.
